funny parts and awed at all the sweet parts.  I was very animated with her and that made me feel good to be myself.  She held my hand when I told her how I knew I loved him on the Ferris wheel.
                  “How did he propose?” 
                  I told her about how after the Ferris wheel part we went and found one of the many 24-hour jewelry stores. 
                  “May I see your ring?” 
                  I held my hand out for her to see and she gawked at it.
                  “Wow, that’s some ring.”
                  “I know.” I stared down at it and smiled.
                  “I think you guys' story is great and thank you so much for sharing it with me.”
                  I turned away from her and looked over at all the eggs. 
                  “But, I can’t help but to wonder how you really feel about him.”
                  “I hurt him badly the morning after… I didn’t remember him or anything about the night at all.  I tried, but the memories wouldn’t come back.  By that next morning, I had remembered everything, but I had finally sent him back to his hotel. The last thing I told him was that my lawyer would be contacting his lawyer.  I tried to find him when I got my memory back, but he was long gone by then. By the time I got back to work, my godfather, who happened to be my boss and my attorney, had every single thing on Xavier and demanded that I come up here, and convince him to sign the divorce papers.”
                  She stared me down. Then, she started swinging her legs while chewing on the inside of her mouth. “How do you feel about him, Phoebe?"
                  “It doesn’t matter.”
                  “Why doesn’t it?”
                  “It’s just my rotten luck.”
                  “But, I think you do love him.”
                  “I don’t want any of his money or any parts of this farm. I just need for him to sign my papers, but he said he wouldn’t until you guys left.”
                  “Phoebe, have you told him that you love him?”
                  “He doesn’t believe me.”
                  “Oh, honey.” She tried to soothe me, but I wasn’t in the mood. 
                  “I’m getting a headache. I’m going to go lay down for a while.”
                  “You don’t have run off. We can talk about something else.”
                  I gave her a small smile. “Maybe later.”
                  “Honey, I wasn’t trying to upset you.”
                  “I know.”
                  She held her arms out for me and I stepped into her embrace.  She gave me a triple kiss on my forehead without even removing her lips in between. 
                  Over her shoulder, I saw Xena and Xyliar, two of Xavier’s sisters walking towards the steel building. It was a good thing I wanted to go lie down.  I didn’t make eye contact with either one of them as I walked past them. 
                  At the house, I stepped in through the kitchen and walked right passed Clara.               “Mrs. Luther, are you alright?”
                  “Yes, I just have a light headache. I’m going to go lie down for a while.”
                  “Mr. Luther may be gone a while. I’ll bring dinner up to you.”
                  “Thank you, Clara.”
                  “You will do no such thing, Clara.”
                  I heard a voice at the doorframe.  I wasn’t sure which sister that was, but I was getting the hell out of that kitchen.  
                  “This is your house and no one, not even my pig-headed sisters, are going to keep you
